Re: Atlantic fishing VS Gulf fishing discussion
 

aside from all the inshore species that maco mentioned we also have a pretty good offshore fishery. of course its not quite what you guys have down south and we do have to run a bit farther out but we get mako, tuna,(both bluefin and yellowfin) dolphin, marlin, wahoo, DELICIOUS GOLDEN TILEFISH, and there aint nothin like havin a 16 foot top of the food chain enter your slick and chew on your chumpot for an hour or two!!! WOW!!! we also consider blues trash unless you catch em the way i do... four pound spinning gear. aint a fiestier sonofa***** on light *** tackle. twenty minutes of the baddest *** light tackle fishin you can find anywhere!

Blue Fish Trash :o I love a nice freash Blue!! I catch, bleed, cut head, gut, throw on ice all with in 5 min of bringing them on the boat.
Eat the same day and I am telling you IT's Great!

Re: Atlantic fishing VS Gulf fishing discussion
 

I like a bluefish as well . I do try to eat them the same day that they are caught .

Re: Atlantic fishing VS Gulf fishing discussion
 

I smoke my bluefish......tastes awesome!

Re: Atlantic fishing VS Gulf fishing discussion
 

i cant really vouch for the taste of bluefish not being much of a fish eater to begin with. 99 percent of my catch gets to go home after a hard fought battle.
niether one of my boys have ever seen a fish die... gonna be a hell of a time explaining that one off next time i take one or two for the table.

Re: Atlantic fishing VS Gulf fishing discussion
 

I have eatin bluefish as well and as yall said it CAN be good if prepped and cooked right. I would just rather eat something that tastes better without working so hard for it. ;D

Re: Atlantic fishing VS Gulf fishing discussion
 

I agree about the blues alot of fun to catch great chum Stinky a trigger is kind of hard to clean also with my knives but tastes great

Re: Atlantic fishing VS Gulf fishing discussion
 

Bluefish 1 - 2 lbs = good eatin
Bluefish > 3 lbs tastes like carp

JMHO

Also, replace the snook with stripers and I guess we're bout the same as Franco!
